You fools, why didn't you tell me that the alchemist boy was next in line? I could have finished it cleanly and no one would've been the wiser. What will you do if he makes it out?
If you think you cannot rely on me, the deal is off. I'll find my own way home.
I don't know that he does, only that he apparently deals with alchemy. Which is of course nonsense, but who am I to tell him that, considering that I still pray to the sun?
I thought that's what alchemy was. But of course. One who has beliefs should think before criticizing those of others, else holes be found in what they follow.
Though with what I have seen in this place, may impossibilities may well be possible.
I'm willing to believe anything that I see with my own eyes, and half the things I hear tales about. He might have some unique ability or other and call it alchemy. In rural Betairun, some people still call Guardians witches.
Of whomever has enlisted me. I've fought with the army of every country in Eloa in my days, but none of them are my country. The fighting's the only purpose of it.
It is challenges I live for. Fortune favors the bold; no one ever succeeds who walks an easy path.
Those are difficult questions, doma. The spirits of this land have every right to do as they please, and I won't be the man to defy them. But community leaders... do we have them, really?
You have every right to stop answering should you so desire, should the questions be too difficult. Some stand out more than others, but there is no one who has quite taken charge yet.

But as I do not know whom this alchemist is, it bothers me not, either way.
